Isaac Moon was born in 1986 and he lives and works in Seoul. He observes the interaction of humans, images, and objects and presents them as the three-dimensional objects in which multiple contemplation is overlapped

 

His artworks that started from exploring the middle ground between images and objects by referring to the production environments of artifacts in which images are printed as objects has been focusing on revealing the gaps in the experiences or amplifying the experiences which have occurred in the relationship between images, objects, and space. His artworks are to arouse the present by complexly referencing and reconstructing the images and forms of the past and the present, myth and science fiction, daily life and art history.

 

Recently, to deal with the subject of teleportation, he has experimented with the modeling which is reinvented and crossing images and objects by using synthetic resin. Also, with reference to clone technique, he has asked how the exhibition is being experienced in the world reorganized with various smart devices by replicating images, sculptures, and spaces in multiple layers and by making an audience experience complexly.

As I have majored both in literature and visual art, my work unfolded on the intersection of a double interest. One is a research on the literary text as a visual subject and the other is about a question on how to read the historical and cultural images as contemporary narratives and how to respond to them. My central concern has always been the “accumulation” rather than a brief moment in time. For example, when I became interested in a ball-point pen, my perspective passed through the material aspect of the pen and went on to permeate into the layers of “chatters” that revolve around the pen. This is an attempt to delve into the objects and phenomena at a slower pace as well as my will to examine, uncover anew, and rigorously restructure the language and images of our time. Thus, it is important for me to draw in language into visual arts in an active manner. The basic methodology consists of bringing together literary imagination from the narratives and a collection of visual images selected among the modern and contemporary history as well as popular culture, and reflectively restructuring the aspects of the world. I believe this means to be a way of “artistic reading” and have continued on my work in various forms of publication, video, photography, and installation with a variety of text.

The main interest of my work is based on a long history of human violence against the weak, especially women, and the study of its root. The works are related to the situations that drive the weak to a dead-end and its complete destruction in which the strong has a dominant control over the weak. The initial interest came from my personal experiences such as how the corporate hires workers under low-income and high-efficiency to boost their profits, and how men use their physical and social strength, restraining and using violence against women.

 

At 'Daughters' (Solo exhibition, 2011), I’ve created a crowd of girl figure statues with holes in their eyes in which incense is burning, in remembrance of the sexually abused children victims. From mid-2013 to late 2015, I’ve created a series of McJob sculptures which mentions disposable labor, all made by sacks of McDonald’s french fries, secretly collected by myself while working there. A performance ' A girl programmed to self-destruct, at the end ' (Performance, May, 2015) shows misogynism that is prevalent in Korean society, and 'bee-shil-kee-shil-kee-shil'(Installation, December, 2015) is a site-specific work that deals with the ridiculousness of the institutional Korean art education entrance examination system in which my drawings blot all plaster casts out that I found in an abandoned art academy.

 

The most recent and representative work is McJob sculptures, made by sacks of McDonald’s french fries. At first, McDonald’s was simply my income source to survive, but as I’ve been swept away in the corporate’s inhuman system, I started to secretly collected french fries sacks. And they’ve become the materials of my work to show the hyper-reasonable-price of products, cheap labors, and the gap between the rich and poor. The reason why I’ve used the sacks of french fries is because the addictiveness and unescapableness of fries’ taste is a perfect metaphor for my generation who can’t escape from poverty although they are working for the world’s biggest corporations. This series has gained a lot of social, political, and media attention in Korea.

 

Currently, I am working on studying a biological root of war and sex, and as a part of it, I am researching Korean sex slaves under Japanese colonization during WW2. 'Sex and War' (Malcolm Potts and Thomas Haden, 2010) takes an evolutionary approach that deals with the men’s sexual jealousness, a common reason of human violence. The authors says that the men and women’s specific behaviors related to sex and violence are varied depending on the situations, but also insist that they are on genes. Far from dichotomously saying that men are meant to be aggressive and women are not, I’m rather more interested in the root of war and violence, and the biological approach to it that how living things are programmed, female’s role in the system, how repetitive the human history is, and what we can do to change it, from a broader aspect.

DON Sunpil (b.1984) is an artist who dismantles the affection towards the object and background which are frequently appeared in the subculture. To the artist, represented by the figure, a so-called OTAKU culture is not simply for leisure or light amuse, but a fascinating social phenomenon and a clue to a shared aesthetic sense. DON brings out the subject like animation, which is asserted to be existing on the outside of Fine Art boundary, into a discourse within the art world then intersect each other. The artist not only maintains affection in one hand and strict aesthetic appreciation in the other for the cultural context, narrative, and the adoration towards the figures but also persistently explored the perfection and logical completeness of the figure, then unfolded them to the audience.

 

DON sees the figure as a mass-produced product created by individuals who share the same aesthetic orientation and looks into the aspects of society and culture, the basis of which these specific individuals and communities were created. Furthermore, it is assumed that the interface between figures and fine art is ‘useless except for the appreciation’, and appreciation of artworks is compared to ‘Deokjil’. Under such a dry gaze, figures are reproduced with the limitation of the original color of the feeling of a unique scale. Figures that are monochromatic, or resizing the original scale became an object only for the appreciation, but it becomes satisfactory objects just in themselves.

 

DON Sunpil held solo exhibitions at Art Sonje Center (Seoul, Korea) in 2020, ARARIO Museum in Space (Seoul, Korea) in 2019, TasteHouse (Seoul, Korea) in 2018, AVP (Seoul, Korea) in 2016. Participating in the group exhibitions were held at Daerim Museum (Seoul, Korea) in 2020, Danwon Art Museum (Ansan, Korea) in 2019, ARARIO Gallery Seoul I RYSE Hotel (Seoul, Korea), Grassi Museum (Leipzig, Germany) in 2018, The Print Room (London, UK) in 2017, Trading Post (Seoul, Korea) in 2016, SangSangMadang (Seoul, Korea) in 2015. DON participated in the Residency program at 14th SeMA Nanji Residency (Seoul, Korea) in 2020, and published “Figure TEXT: Wonder Festival Report, Kitsutaiten” (2019), “Minmay Attack: Re-Re-Cast, AVP” (2016), and “Figure TEXT, Yourmind” (2016).

Hoh Woo Jung emphasizes invisible substantiality into condensed and simplified lines or shapes and presents the fundamental uncertainty of an existence. Without erasing the thin pencil lines drawn on the canvas, the artist visualizes new figurative spaces by using oil paints as his main medium towards his own unique methodology. He has presented solo exhibitions Shade Left Behind(SongEun ArtCube, 2020), Line, Curve, A Colorful Gesture(Gallery Baton, 2019), From Saturday to Friday(Cheongju Art Studio, 2018), Spiritual Attitude(Gallery Chosun, 2018), and has participated in group exhibitions Sharpness_Temperature of Art(Ilwoo Space, 2020), Edge(Space So, 2020), The Unstable Objects(Nam-Seoul Museum of Art, 2019).

I received BFA and MFA in sculpture department of Seoul National University in South Korea and studied in the fiber department of the School of Art Institute of Chicago in USA. I have had solo show twice including “Living Island” in CICA Museum in Kimpo, Korea in 2020, and I have been participated in several group shows including “Contemporary Landscape in Flux” in The Research House for Asian Art in Chicago in 2021. I have been in one-month program residencies in Monson Arts, Vermont Studio Center, and MASS MOCA in US, and currently working in one-year residency program in Seoul Art Space Geumcheon run by Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture.

 


Note for practice_Sujin Moon

A sense of touch is the basis for all the other sensations. Sight is reconstructed image in the brain from sensing the light when it touches the retina, hearing is to sense the sound wave when it touches the eardrum, taste is a chemical reaction to the foods particles touching the taste buds on tongue, and smell is to sense the odor molecules touching the olfactory cells in the nose. All senses involve a tactile process of ‘touching’ with something.

I define myself as a sculptor. Making sculpture is touching something: touching something’s surface, feeling the texture and resistance of it, and carrying the weight of the thing and wrestling and struggling with it with my whole body.

My practice involves performance carrying my own weight or some other things’ one. My sculptures and installations are often created in a way of pressing and mark-making. Mark-making is occurred when two different bodies attach to each other firmly enough to remain their skins on each other’s bodies. I accepted the process of it as physical and metaphorical.

I tend to regard something invisible and intangible as the things have physical presence. I believe that something without physical body such as thoughts or emotions also has physical power to make something or someone moves. As a sculptor, my goal is making some intangible things into touchable, and remaining marks of something without body.

 


Living Island, 2020

The exhibition consists of documenting materials of the performance work, ‘Living Island’, which occurred from the beginning of February to mid-March 2020 at Lake Hebron in Monson, Maine. ‘Living Island’, a month-long performance project, creates a snow island on the frozen lake with the simple act of shoveling snow until the spring starts the island melt. The work is intertwined with the ideas of the fear from the situation of standing and working on the unstable earth, on the ice, the alertness of latent death, the vulnerability of being, and the consolation from the connection and solidarity with people.

 

Considering the nature of performance work, which is always moment-specific, the question of how to present the performance afterwards in the gallery space always matter. In this sense, the documenting materials are created as interpretations of the memories of the performance, rather than a representation of it. I attempted to find the appropriate forms for the textures and shapes of fragments of the memories. Some moments become a bundle of papers which is bounded to physical weight and thickness. Some other moments become a video, or in other words, light. The other becomes a movement, which is waiting to be activated by someone flipping their fingers.

 

We have passed through a long year. This year was colder and harsher than any other winters due to the spread of the novel virus so that we had to stay inside longer than ever. In this difficult moment, we cannot let the anxiety out of our mind completely. I look back again at the memories of being on the lake and I rethink how weak and small we are, and how much we can be consoled by someone’s support, as I could be by the people in Monson. I hope this work will be a metaphor for lives and a humble gesture of support and solidarity to someone who visits the show.

She is a studying for a master’s degree in the Department of Sculpture at Seoul National University college of Art.

 

Her first individual exhibition was Serious Warming-upat the KIGOJA in 2015 and as part of the group exhibition Seoul Babelat the Seoul Museum of Art in 2015.

 

 

I have been curious about the movement of people in the digital media environment to express their opinions. Humans who dream of a new world as subjects who changed history have created movements from the past to the present with their thoughts and will in their bodies. Individuals showed all the movements aimed at a developmental direction to resolve when society lost its developmentality.

 

The daily and continuous movements that people make are made into short videos. This is an anticipation for a future that is not yet visible. I’m interested in where the direction of the force toward the future is headed by collecting many shorts videos like trailer. Create a situation to assess the identity and capture the moments that will be created in the future.

Artist Statement

Working primarily with painting and often combining it with digital printing, installation, and objects, Jiyoung Yoo examines the way a format of medium transforms its content. Her practice is primarily focussed on the conversion of indefinite ideas in flux into disconnected fragments arranged within a certain frame and on the consequent substitution of their nature with the medium’s formal qualities. Yoo employs painting as a means of visualising the process by questioning the underlying principle of painting where it has its external relation to the wall and internal relation to content. Overlapping the conditions of painting with daily elements within the system of arrangement, her works unfold an unusual painting situation where the viewers are invited to perceive the structure within and outside the medium.

 

 

Biography

Jiyoung Yoo is a South Korean-born artist who is based in London and Seoul. Questioning the conventional conditions of painting, Yoo explores relationships between objects within the system of arrangement developed based on their uses. She graduated with an MA degree in Painting from the Slade School of Fine Art, London (2017) and received a BFA in Painting from Hongik University, Seoul (2014). She recently had two solo exhibitions in Seoul including One After Another, Alltimespace (2019); and Spilled Water, RainbowCube (2018). She has been awarded grants and residencies, among which are: the Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture’s solo show grant (2021) and research grant (2019); and the position of artist-in-residence at Seoul Art Space Geumcheon, Seoul (2021) and Katitak Centre, HKBU, Hong Kong (2018). She was the finalist of Korean Eye 2020 organised by Parallel Contemporary Art (2020) and Contemporary Visions 8 run by Beers London (2017).

Seoul Art Space Geumcheon(SASG) will be joining the 2021 Res Artis Conference <DEFINING THE NEXT DECADE> to discuss the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the sector.


About the SASG Participation Panel

Friday 10 September 16:30-18:00 BKK (18:30-20:00 KST)

[Adapting practice & program to the digital environment] 

The pandemic has forced artists to develop an online presence, adapt their practice to a digital medium and conduct online residency, showcasing and professional development opportunities. 

How and can all artists ‘pivot’ their practice? Can artists retain copy-right in the digital realm? What programming and legal considerations should artists and arts residencies contemplate in order to cater for increased virtual activity in the field?

Res Artis Conference 2021 Bangkok

Defining the Next Decade
8 – 17 September 2021


Res Artis is excited to announce our first ever fully digital Res Artis conference hosted by SAC Gallery, Bangkok and supported by ASEF culture360KONNECT ASEAN, ASEAN FoundationGoethe-Institut Thailand and Japan Foundation, Bangkok. Titled Defining the Next Decade, the conference will examine the tremendous impact of COVID-19 and the future of the international arts residencies field. We will present the results of Res Artis survey data and examine new models of arts residencies that have evolved in response to the pandemic. This includes the rise in local exchange, virtual residencies, and digital residency activity that has occurred while physical exchange is paused.

Taking place during diverse time zones spread over two weeks in September, the virtual nature of this conference will reflect new digital residency activity emerging in the field and will offer greater accessibility for attendees and contributors alike. We will offer workshops and presentations from members of the art residency field throughout the world with a particular focus on those based in South East Asia and Thailand. The conference will include opportunities for facilitated small group interactions, artistic offerings as well as Bangkok gallery and residency tours. This promises to be a digital event unlike any other that through its programming and format will address the importance of meaningful “hosting” in the virtual realm.

  Expansive stories built through de-construction

   Anna Harsanyi









 




In Youngle Keem’s film, Searching for Seahorse (2016), images of ocean fauna and flowing waters are interspersed with a gentle narration: “One day, seahorse disappeared. When it happened, some of human capability was also lost. No one felt sorry about that. Everybody forgot about it soon.” The story is of a missing, suddenly disappeared seahorse, and of an anonymous protagonist’s search for it within an ever-changing world. At first, the viewer might think this is a true story, blending scientific fact and the tale of one individual’s search for a specific seahorse. But through a subtle unraveling across image and narration, Searching for Seahorse can be understood as a parable about reckoning with history while simultaneously navigating a rapidly changing contemporary society. When looking for seahorse, the anonymous searcher must turn to the world around them. We see images of crowds, of newly built housing blocks, of city dwellers crowded in commuter clusters. We see closeups of diplomatic hands shaking in ceremonial commemoration, world leaders passively gazing into the glare of atomic weapon detonations, and violent scenes of civil war. In the viewer’s process of connecting such disparate imagery, the seahorse emerges as an anonymous, potentially universal symbol for the individual who contends with memories of the past within shifting worlds of economic, technological, and political tumult. Where the video began with the ebb and flow of an ocean tide, its images swell from natural sceneries to those of man-made physical and social scenarios. Even when seahorse reappears in memories, she is unrecognizable and unable to swim against the tides she has been missing from. Seahorse drifts away in the naturally occurring rhythms of her own environment. This story, it turns out, is not a story at all – it is a structure for breaking down and then re-constructing visual language.
 
 
 
Keem’s practice encompasses both publication and video formats, treating the book as an art object and its text as a framework for visual contemplation. A book shifts in form and function over time and can develop a relationship with its reader. In terms of what is presented on the page, there is no “right” or “wrong” interpretation, no singular culminating message to be gleaned at the end. For Keem, the book and its contents have a fluid and expansive life, a place of conceptual reflection and personal meaning-making.
 
 
 
In the same way that books serve as a tool for critical imagination, in Keem’s work the act of interpretation is often situated in the in-between, in the invisible spaces which tie together image, text, and sound. Pictures and words are presented outside of their usual contexts, stories are shaped by their proximity to images, and an image’s meaning shifts in relationship to other ones. This relational structure forms a network of symbolism and metaphor in Keem’s work, a language which holds at its core the familiar and ubiquitous aspects of our visual culture.
 
 



 
The artist’s book Monami 153 Chronicles (2009) tells the story of the Monami 153 ballpoint pen, a pervasive object of daily use. Within its pages are ruminations, histories, photographs, song lyrics, and other materials which are applied to reflect on the pen’s many qualities including its color, uses, and design. The images and subject matters laid out within the seven chapters traverse Korean histories of authoritarianism, economic progress, and cultural development. Shifting contexts and narrative voices present the pen as an object with a rise and a fall, and whose memory contains multitudes. At times the pen is its own character against a national backdrop of modernization. At others, it is a utility which makes possible the writing of personal notes on paper. Freely associating between word and image, page and frame, true stories and invented ones, the publication at once ties divergent elements together while intentionally keeping them disconnected. There is a tension here between the instinctual reaction to the pen – it is a familiar object, and any viewer or reader can recognize at least something about it. But this book refuses to adhere to traditional story arcs or exposition. Instead, it guides a journey into the construction of this object’s identity, which can only be completely understood in the reader’s mind and through their own interpretations of the disparate visual and textual elements. What Monami 153 Chronicles offers is a synchronous trip through past and present, fact and fiction, an experience of fluid critical conjecture rooted in that which is recognizable.
 

 



 
The publication Captive Stones (2019) gathers visual representations of stones in art history, daily life, and the environment. Here again the reader is presented with juxtapositions of stones in their naturally occurring states, or as materials for sculpture, or in historical paintings. Stones, it seems, are manipulated in many ways – they are props in image construction. What happens, then, when we pay attention to the stones themselves, as opposed to the context in which they are viewed? This type of removal through close-up focus in Keem’s practice does not tell, it shows. Employing a process of examination of the familiar, the artist allows the reader to think about their own subjective systems of observation, understanding, and application.
 
 






















Keem’s work draws out the power of images and words by revealing their social and cultural capital – the recognizable, the ordinary, and the accessible. Blue Land (2019) is a short film which intertwines the Smurfs with the history of Korea and its global politics, which influence its cultural and governmental institutions. In the film, the Smurfs are introduced as they are commonly known - illustrated characters created by a cartoonist - but their story morphs into a narrative in which they become integrated members of society, their lives overlapping with Korea’s societal changes in political and cultural systems, urban planning, and class dynamics. The film intersperses quick cuts of archival footage with a voiceover conversation in French (the language of the Smurf’s real-life Belgian creator, Pierre Culliford) which meanders between self-reflection and abstract questions. The experience of watching is one of inquiry – to follow the trajectory of the film is to move from passive viewing to actively questioning the links between the many source images and voiceover narratives woven together. The notion of context is removed from all that is presented in the film – there are no captions for the archival footage, so it is up to the viewer to consider what the connection might be when, for example, a series of images from political ceremonies, meetings of industrialists, social uprisings, and urban daily life flash in succession. The film’s end posits the nuanced omnipresence of the color blue, which appears in contemporary events like blue paint being sprayed on Hong Kong protestors or the blue background of the Twitter logo. The process of making sense of what is presented here is one of realizing that, without a prescribed context, the meaning of images and narratives change. Perhaps the artist is signaling this approach when, in the beginning of the film, a close-up shot shows Smurf characters being meticulously cut out from their cartoon paper. They are literally being removed from their usual, familiar context (the cartoon), and being placed into a new one – a multivalent world which drifts between past and present, a narrative shaped not by a traditional story arc, but by its own details.
 
 
 
Drifting between fact and fiction, between real and imaginary, can also be a tool for critical reflection. By starting with ubiquitous imagery or familiar story-telling formats, then subverting assumed contexts through a composition of smaller narratives and disparate image groups, the viewer has an opportunity to challenge the idea that narratives must be linear, that images have universal meaning, and that a story follows a trajectory. Within this blur of truth and fiction emerges a politics of de-construction. Keem’s works do not overtly suggest political ideas or specific social messages, but they raise questions about our own realities in order to piece together new ones. The unknown or the unclear becomes less of a point for confusion and more of a space for pondering potential alternatives. Through works that present truth as fiction, image as text, book as art object, and vice versa, Keem’s practice offers up a space where critical imagination can become reality. 



[Sujin MOON] Critical Essay / Garth Grimball

Sujin Moon Critical Essay

Garth Grimball





 

What part of a sculpture elicits marvel? The most common experience of sculpture, in a gallery or museum, is to walk around a pedestal as if testing the object’s three dimensionality. If the sculpture is large enough to be protected by a line on the floor, viewers are told, “please do not touch.” From an acceptable distance sculpture is considered not sensed. Only considering the finished form limits the scope of the medium. We become detached from the action of sculpting. Marvel emerges in the sculpting.


Sujin Moon sculpts. Her work concerns the body and performance as much as any molded object. Time, natural elements, the interplay of weight and effort alchemize in her sculpting. The immaterial is equal to the material. For Moon sculpture is an inclusive art. To experience her work is to ask, what isn’t sculpture? Which is not to say her work is vague or undefined. Her specificity lies in the ability to make room for the unknown, to allow the process to surprise her.






The biggest circle I can draw (2016) intimates the story of Giotto and Pope Benedict XI. When the Pope requested an example of Giotto’s work to be considered for a commission, Giotto sent a hand-painted perfect circle. He got the job. Moon uses her whole body to achieve the same mastery. Like a human compass she fixes her right big toe to an imagined center and stretches her body to its limit with a piece of chalk in her right hand. Slowly she builds the curving line. Inch by inch her left foot and arm muscle the line of her body, the line of the compass. She has the taut concentration of a rock climber. Moon stops at points to slough off pieces of the chalk’s paper wrapping. The focus shifts from her body and the line to the material. The transfer of matter, like ice to water, appears as the solid chalk decomposes in the composition of a circle.



The title, The biggest circle I can draw, encompasses the tenets of Moon’s work. She tests her endurance and focus as if responding to a dare. You want to see the biggest circle I can draw? Well, here it is. Lying stretched on the ground she can’t see her progress or accuracy. Invisibility as another limitation. The circle forms not from hand-eye coordination but trusting sensations. Watching her muscles strain and relax elicits a kinesthetic response. Are my muscles cramping or am I slowly contorting myself into her shape during the 17 minutes it takes for the ends to meet? The body, the chalk, and the surface merge into an experience: circle making.




















For Living Island (2020) Moon combines found object and land art with an infusion of dreaminess. During a residency in rural Maine she walked onto a frozen lake and shoveled snow into a huge mass. The simplicity in action belies the wonder in reaction. Moon filmed the process. The opening shot is like an Impressionist painting. Heavy snowfall covers the landscape. On this blank canvas a single figure trudges away from the camera into obscurity. Cut to a mound of white presiding over the naturally occurring contours of a wind-sliced snowpack. Original music by Jeon Yeongjun duets with the sound of wind. The soundscape mirrors the sculpture—natural elements remixed by human craft. The film presents the sculpture like a found object by editing out its creation. As if it just landed on its spot like a sci-fi monolith.






 

A collage of shots over several months transform the mound into an island. As it melts a pool collects around the perimeter. The weight of a metaphor can collapse the physical form. Does the melting represent climate change? Is the isolation of the sculpted mass akin to social isolation? Seeing the island melt down to a remnant of its former self, are we meant to think about how time weathers us all? Living Island encourages interpretation and remains intact against the limits of interpretation. The film ends with the same figure walking towards the camera. The landscape is serene and sun-filled with green trees. Moon brought the island to life and witnessed it dissolve into its original form.


Distinctions between artwork and artist blur for Sujin Moon. There is no separation between the weight of her body and the weight of her material. Weight renders time into a physical feeling. Time continues. Weight changes. Feel the weight of time. The feeling syncs with the time of the material and its environment. Sometimes the body itself is the material; its weight is known but the environment is a mystery to be located.




While attending the MFA program at The School of Art Institute of Chicago, Moon’s sculpting became acts of locating. Into the Grid: hiding in public (2019) and From the Grid (2018) are a mixed-media diptych of dislocation and location. Into the Grid sees Moon carrying a mirror around downtown Chicago. In photographs and video she hides herself behind a reflection. In many of the photographs it takes a moment to locate her mirage, like an invisible Where’s Waldo? This visible invisibility actualizes the experience of being in a place but not of a place. Anonymity feeds freedom and loneliness. Moon is free to play in the unfamiliarity of foreign space, uninhibited by collective routines. But the photographs suggest a loneliness of being without the compass of memory. Where are you when no one knows you and you know no one?


 

The video captures the awkwardness of hauling a human-sized reflector through intersections, negotiating distance, bulk, and passersby. Seeing Moon struggle with the weight and dimensions of the mirror only to peek from behind with a look of giddy transgression feels like the work of translation. After hours of memorizing and conjugating, meaning suddenly clicks. Moon locates the complexity of being new to a place in her body and the reflection of others.












From the Grid renders the cityscape soft through textiles. When Moon arrived in Chicago she was struck by the grids within grids. She describes walking around the downtown Loop as disorienting; the intersecting streets and the rows upon rows of skyscraper windows blended into an uber-grid. Using a natural-synthetic fiber blend Moon sewed city planning into tapestries. Buildings and thoroughfares are reduced to squares and lines. The fabric bunches or folds in places like the histories built into the city’s structure. Streets thick with protests, policy, and populations. Moon presented these soft sculptures from the view within a highrise apartment. Hung on the windows like drapes, the city bleeds through the transparent parts. Hard and soft materials, the real and the imaginary meet.


Implicit in an analysis of Sujin Moon’s work is the digital. She is a sculptor. Much of her work is site-specific and widely shared via filming and digital presentation. How many people experienced Living Island in real life? Does it matter? To borrow another Renaissance tale: the feud between Leonardo and Michelangelo. Michelangelo claimed sculpture was the “real” art because it is three dimensional. Leonardo countered that painting was the truer art because sculpting was labor that caused one to sweat, therefore not fine art. Within this apocryphal exchange is the tension present in much of Moon’s art. Her work hurdles over distinctions and dimensions. The digital divide invites a closer viewing rather than extending the distance between art and viewer. Editing, like sculpting, shapes transitions. Whether experienced as an image, an object, or a performance, she is sculpting. What emerges is marvelous.

Biography

류성실은 동시대 한국의 소비주의적 풍속에서 발견한 블랙코미디 서사를 설치, 퍼포먼스, 비디오 등의 매체로 구현한다

<체리장 시리즈>는 오늘날 한국 마케팅 산업의 페르소나를 자처하는 가상의 인물 체리장이 걸어온 화려한 삶의 궤적과 그 끝에 돌연 찾아온 죽음, 그리고 죽음 이후 다시 하늘나라 천사로 부활해 인생 2막을 누리게 되는 개인의 일대기적 서사를 담고 있다. 일련의 서사는 일견 민주적으로 보이는 오늘날의 시스템에 수시로 침투하는 거짓 약속, 그리고 그에 현혹되는 소시민성을 쉼 없이 조명한다

<대왕트래블 시리즈>는 가족주의/구복신앙으로 대표되는 한국의 토착성이 오늘날의 신자유주의와 뒤엉켜 나뒹구는 시대상을 블랙코미디적으로 드러낸다. 한국인의 뿌리 깊은 문화를 겨냥한 노인 전문 여행사인 '대왕트래블', 근본 없는 이국성을 과시하는 자칭 외국인 직원 '나타샤', 그리고 이들의 비즈니스 타겟인 '노인 집단이 서로 엉기며 만드는 서사는 소비주의적 한국성을 환기시킨다

Biography
현정윤은 사회와 개인 그리고 공동체의 관계에 관심을 가지며 힘의 관계 안에서 일상을 영위하는 존재들의 양태를 참조하여 작업한다. 작가는 동세, 몸짓, 표정 등을 포함하는 신체를 가진 조각들의 주체화의 과정과 조각들의 군상을 통해 유연한 연대적 상황을 그려보며 비통일적으로 주체를 생각하는 방법을 모색하고 새로운 공동체의 모습을 상상한다. 최근에는 조각에 모종의 태도를 부여하는 것과 조각이 배우가 되고 전시공간이 무대가 되는 상황을 좋아한다. 조각이 공간에 어떻게 위치하는지에 따라 조각이 무엇을 바라보는지, 즉 조각의 시선과 역할을 설정하는 것을 즐기며 전시로 특정한 상황을 제시한다. 팩토리2 See you down the road(2021), 국립현대미술관 과천관 젊은모색 2021(2021), 송은아트큐브 울며 수영하기(2020)등의 전시와 국립현대미술관 고양레지던시 (2021), 한국예술종합학교 미술원 창작스튜디오(2019)등의 레지던시 프로그램에 참여하였다.

Biography
양승원은 대학에서 사진을 전공하고 대학원에서 순수미술을 전공했다. 사실과 가공의 경계를 흔드는 유사 이미지로 인식론과 사진 영역의 확장 가능성을 탐색한다. 이차원과 삼차원을 넘나들며 재현된 이미지는 조작된 것이지만 결국 별다른 의심 없이 실재로서 인식된다는데 아이러니가 있다. 사실을 기록하는 다큐멘터리적인 접근을 벗어나 이미지의 확장을 모색하며 사진의 기록과 재현이라는 전통적인 역할과 이에 담긴 정보성을 뒤흔드는 인식의 전환을 시도한다. 서울시립미술관 SeMA창고(2021), 하이트컬렉션(2019), 송은아트큐브(2018) 등에서 개인전을 개최했고, 국립아시아문화전당 ACC아시아창작스튜디오(2021), 경기창작센터(2017) 등의 레지던시에 참여했다.

Biography
전혜림은 회화를 이루는 관념은 이미지를 통해 어떻게 드러나는가? 라는 문제에 주목하여, '낙원'을 드러내는 약호들을 미술사를 비롯한 동시대 이미지에서 추출하고 재배치해가며 관례적 회화의 규칙을 변주한다. '회화는 무엇이고 어떻게 권위를 획득했으며 그 시제는 어떻게 규정되는가'와 같은 질문을 소재로 삼아 회화와 설치 작업을 진행하고 있다. 2020[재귀미로의 탈출조건] 탈영역우정국, 2019[육면체의 인덱스] 합정지구 등의 개인전과 2021[황혜홀혜] 경남도립미술관, 2020[이 공간, 그 장소: 헤테로토피아] 대림미술관, 2018[생생화화(Hard-boiled &Toxic)] 경기도미술관 등 다수의 그룹전을 가졌다. 인천아트플랫폼, 국립현대미술관 고양레지던시 등의 입주작가로 활동했다.
